Love Is Blind’s Taylor Rue Is Expecting a Rainbow Baby!

Love is Blind’s Taylor Rue is expecting a sweet rainbow baby!

The season five fan favorite and her boyfriend, Cameron Shelton, shared the exciting news on Instagram on October 20. “Baby Shelton coming in April! A true gift from God,” the couple captioned a photo of themselves holding their baby’s sonogram. “Words can’t express how excited Cam and I are for this next chapter of our lives! So in love already.”

The couple’s joyful announcement follows a heartbreaking pregnancy loss earlier this year. “After miscarrying, we decided that we weren’t going to put pressure on trying again. We were just going to enjoy each other and help each other heal. And that’s exactly what we did! A few months passed, and we decided to grab a test at 10 p.m. one night—and it was positive,” the couple told People.

“We were so in shock and so happy. We found out on National Rainbow Baby Day,” Rue told the outlet. “I know that God has a purpose behind every single one of His plans. Of course, we are nervous about what’s to come—who wouldn’t be? But the excitement outweighs the anxiety immensely.”

In June, Rue and Shelton first shared news of their pregnancy loss with followers. “This was our first appointment where we got to see our baby that made us parents. We couldn’t wait to share the news of our pregnancy with everyone, but now we are sharing very different news. I pray and feel for any family that goes through this,” they wrote.

“It went from ‘Mom, there’s a heartbeat,’ to ‘There is no heartbeat,’ within weeks. Cam and I are devastated and heartbroken. Only time will heal the pain we feel. We know that God’s plan is so much greater than ours and that Baby S is in heaven, looking down on us. Baby S will forever be in our hearts.”

Rue exited Love is Blind season five in early 2022, following a “hurtful” conversation with her former fiancé JP Pierce. Although audiences saw the season unfold in 2023, Rue met Shelton in the meantime and announced their relationship shortly after the season aired in October 2023. “Found my plus one," she said in their Instagram-official post.

We’re thrilled for Rue and Shelton as they embark on this beautiful new chapter!
